Support family members of those killed by police to ask for justice

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: CIVIC WORKS

Family members of those shot and killed by police often have a lonely battle to fight for accountability for their loved ones death and to prevent future shootings - like that of George Floyd. We are currently in touch with the family of Ryan Matthew Smith who was killed on May 8, 2019 - see details: https://twitter.com/rosewitnothorns ; and we are actively researching other cases of previous shootings.

In Ryan's case, volunteers will support the mother in pushing for an inquest and to hold the officers accountable for their actions.

We may also adopt other cases. Clearly police forces need stronger measures to remove bad cops and provide accountability for killings. Working on each individual case is a way to identify which officers need to be removed and send a message that killing cannot be done lightly or brushed off without some kind of real review and inquiry to stop this happening again.
